Does anyone know how to get a copy of an award that's not on your OMPF?

The orders for your award should have been uploaded into iPERMS by the unit that gave it to you. That would be the first place I would look. https://iperms.hrc.army.mil/rms/. Good luck.

Sir, unfortunately no. The award is from back when I was a Private that didn't think about keeping the 638 or checking my OMPF for it.

SSG (Join to see) - Your S1 can submit an official request to your old unit's S1 to track it down however it's unfortunately a matter of willingness on their part to do the work. Otherwise you will have to remove it.

The issuing S-1/G-1 should have the Order Number in a new system called TACCS. See excerpt from AR 600-8-105 below. (However, this may not have been in effect when you were a private)
b. Commanders of Active Army detachments, companies, batteries, or battalions that are serviced by a centralized MILPER office will not issue written orders. When written orders are required,
commanders who are not authorized to issue written orders will submit a request for orders to the commander responsible for providing administrative support . However, the installation adjutant general may authorize those battalion and brigade commanders with automation capabilities (such as the Tactical Army Combat Service Support Computer System (TACCS)) to publish orders for the actions listed in (1) through (4) below.
(1) Awards.
(a) Good Conduct Medal.
(b) Diver Badge.
(c) Drivers Badge.
(d) AAM per AR 672–5–1, table 2–3.
(e) ARCOM per AR 672–5–1, table 2–3.
(2) Intrastation reassignment (no travel).
(3) Attachment or relief from attachment (no travel).
(4) Special pay (flight pay and sea pay).

If you only have the permanent order number, can someone from outside the issuing command access the award in TACCS?

That is a good question. Your S-1/G-1 would have the answer. I have not used this system as I am an 88N. From my past experience it could only be the issuing unit's S-1/G-1, but that might have changed through progress in technology in recent years.
